After-the-Do Don’t: Judge
One thing Dr. Ladas says to remember during the post-sex wrap-up is to never make judgments about your partner or blame them for less-than-idyllic sex. Once couples start playing the blame game, sexual communication goes the way of the dinosaur and couples are left with frustration and resentment. “It’s easy for a man or woman to be hurt unless the communication about what is needed is done in a very gentle and very non-demanding way,” Ladas says. “It’s very important how the communication is made.” Talk honestly, frequently and gently, and you’ll build a lasting connection that’s worth talking about.
